The Art of Collecting

A complimentary guide to choosing art with confidence. Learn to trust your eye, ask thoughtful questions, and choose original art that feels meaningful to you.

What's inside:

Begin with what moves you.

​

Learn to notice the colors, forms, and textures that draw you in, before you choose anything.

​

Imagine the life of the room.

Think about scale, color without matching everything, and how you want a room to feel. Includes a painter’s tape trick for seeing the size on your own wall.

​

Understand what you're collecting.

Original art versus prints, materials and process, and what to ask about framing and dimensions.

​

Questions worth asking.

What to ask before you buy: original or print, medium and surface, framed or unframed, shipping, and care. Plus five questions to help you decide.

​

"You don't need to know everything about art to begin. You simply need to notice what moves you."
